Even though they had already guessed in advance what the elders in the capital were hiding from them, when they received the message the next day, Ye Shuo and Xu Yanhao were still shocked.
Both of them knew about the rumors in the capital, but they never thought that not only was it true, but that it involved so much.
In that moment, Xu Yanhao threw the slip of paper in his hand into the fire in front of him.
After Ye Shuo came back to his senses, he looked at his cousin and said: "Cousin, let's go directly to the place Third Uncle had told us to look … Looking for a cousin? "
Ye Shuo originally wanted to say that he was going to look for Cousin Ye Yan, but in the end, he changed his mind and said that he was going to look for his' cousin '.
Hearing Ye Shuo's words, Xu Yanhao sighed deeply, then spoke out: "Since that's the case, then let's go to the town up ahead to buy some things, and in the name of the clan brothers, let's go see our cousin."
The note that he had given Xu Yanhao and Ye Shuo was personally written by Xu Shiqiu, and was not shown to Prince Duan. Therefore, it had clearly stated that Xu Yanzhu was seven or eight months pregnant and was about to give birth.
If Xu Yanzhu was not pregnant, they would not be in a hurry, but pregnant women were not normal people. If they were not careful, it would affect the child in their womb.
Ye Shuo understood this point, so when he heard Xu Yanhao's words, he nodded in agreement.
"Then we will start preparing now and head straight for the address given by the Third Uncle." After saying that, Ye Shuo scratched his head fretfully.
They truly did not expect that things would become so troublesome.
But no matter what, they had to hurry to the address that Xu Shiqiu gave them.
Just as Ye Shuo and Xu Yanhao finished shopping and was about to leave, Yan Ye who had already been at home for a few days received the news that Xu Shiqiu had come back to him when he returned.
After finding out that Ye Jingde was actually the person who delivered the message behind him, and that it was even more likely that he would come to find him now, Yan Ye immediately sneered and said: "This person is really good at scheming!"
Hearing Yan Ye's words, Xu Yanzhu who heard the commotion raised her head and looked at him: "What did Third Uncle say? How can you be so angry? " As she said that, Xu Yanzhu actually wanted to hold onto her stomach and walk towards Yan Ye.
Could it be that from Xu Yanzhu's actions, she didn't have the heart to think about when Ye Jingde would arrive here? She hurriedly let go of what she was thinking and walked over to Xu Yanzhu's side to support her.
"Didn't the doctor say you could be born prematurely? I'll let you rest a little bit more. You can just come out and walk for a while at noon every day. " As Yan Ye spoke, the worry between his brows did not fade.
Xu Yanzhu knew that Yan Ye was worried about him, and so was her grandmother, who came back with Yan Ye.
However, although she was not well at the beginning of her pregnancy and her body wasn't well, she still came from the family of generals. It wasn't like she hadn't practiced martial arts since she was young.
Therefore, in these past few months, Xu Yanzhu felt that her body was growing pretty good.
Although the doctor had said that she might give birth half a month earlier, she was only seven or eight months pregnant and was still far away.
But even though she was thinking like this, Xu Yanzhu knew that Yan Ye was worried about him, so when she raised her head again, she looked at Yan Ye and said in a spoiled manner, "I know what I'm doing, and it's fine. Recently, Grandmother has also been keeping a close eye on him. There are still two doctors who take her pulse every day. She will be fine. "
Hearing Xu Yanzhu's words, although Yan Ye was still worried in his heart, he knew that it was not good to say anything.
Thinking about the news that he had just received, Yan Ye paused for a moment.
On the second day after he returned, Yan Ye roughly told Xu Yanzhu what had happened during this time he was in the capital.
So when she heard Yan Ye's words, Xu Yanzhu was not too surprised, but because she was also not very familiar with Ye Jingde, she could only look at him in the end and ask: "Then what should we prepare?"
"I will send a letter to Elder Sun. Recently, we have been keeping a tight grip on the outside but have paid extra attention to the inside." After speaking to Xu Yanzhu for a while, Yan Ye then continued, "This is the ancestor of the Elder Sun after all. As long as Elder Sun sends a message outside, once a new face appears near our two families, she would definitely be discovered very quickly."
Xu Yanzhu also felt that Yan Ye's idea was not bad. Although she had only been here for a few months, she knew that the Sun family was a famous family. As long as the Sun family came out and spread the news, there would definitely be a lot of people helping.
Because of this, after Yan Ye made a trip to the Sun family, he even specially informed the former Empress Dowager Hu and the current old lady of the Yan family.
"You did the right thing. The Sun family is a famous family here. If the Sun family sends out a message, I'm sure the people will keep an eye on them." After saying this, Empress Dowager Hu thought for a moment before continuing, "It's just that according to the news that came from the capital, this Ye Jingde should have many helpers by his side. He's even more cautious, wouldn't he be alerted?"
Once Empress Dowager Hu's words came out, Yan Ye paused for a moment. Then, he said straightforwardly, "But now that he's in the dark, and the two little brothers that are in charge of following him have lost him, your grandson can't think of any good methods right now."
Empress Dowager Hu also understood this logic. After thinking for a moment, she looked at Yan Ye and said, "Forget it, in the next few days, you should be more careful. I'll send two more people over to protect Yanzhu."
Hearing Empress Dowager Hu's words, Yan Ye felt slightly embarrassed.
He knew that his grandmother had someone in her hands, but he was the one who had supported his family. Now, he actually needed his grandmother to help him.
However, Yan Ye knew his grandmother's worry. His skills were not bad, as long as Ye Jingde did not bring a large group of people, he was not afraid.
On the other hand, Xu Yanzhu who was pregnant was the one who needed to be protected the most.
Available...
"Grandmother, you must not lack people to protect you." Yan Ye thought for a moment, but still managed to say these words, and then seeing his grandmother looking at him with a smile, he continued: "Otherwise, if you want to bring Yanzhu to your courtyard for a few days, and you want to stay with her, then there's no need to divide the staff, she can even accompany you to talk."
Empress Dowager Hu naturally knew of Yan Ye's good intentions, but she had come here in secret. Other than the few servants by her side, only Elder Sun knew about the news.
Although Xu Yanzhu was pregnant, she was still used to socializing with others.
If he moved to her place, although it would be easier to protect him, it wouldn't be convenient.
"Don't worry, Grandmother has plenty of people to protect. Grandmother knows what to do."
Hearing his grandmother's words, Yan Ye did not have much to say, so he could only concern himself with her for a while longer before leaving to arrange for the family guards.
The guards of Yan Ye's family were all brothers who had followed him for so many years.
The house he bought was big, and all his brothers and sisters lived in the side yard. Therefore, his house was not very populated, so even if the house was big, he could still live in it.
This time, after hearing what Yan Ye had said, they did not need Yan Ye's instructions to split their manpower into four groups, and every four hours, they would switch. The other group would use this method to maneuver, wherever they need to go, if there was nothing wrong, they would help the Sun family gather information on the outside.
Seeing his brothers' arrangement, Yan Ye was relieved.
What they did not expect was that even after they had prepared for a long time, they did not hear any news from Ye Jingde.
Until the arrival of Ye Shuo and Xu Yanhao, there was still no news of Ye Jingde at all.
"You two as well. Come and visit your elder sister straight away. Why are you buying so many things?"
Xu Yanzhu watched her cousin and cousin's happy expressions. Although she had only left the capital for a few months, she had indeed missed home.
She didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she looked at the things her cousin and cousin brought.
"Hehe, these are all for elder cousin's little nephew. We are all uncles, we cannot be empty-handed."
In the end, Ye Shuo who had an active personality took the initiative to say those words, but the two of them were indeed a little embarrassed.
After all, the place where they were buying was not too far away, so many things could be bought here.
If it was brought here by the capital, it could even be considered a speciality. All of this really made one at a loss as to what to say.
Looking at his cousin and cousin's distress, Xu Yanzhu knew that these two were not good at such things, so she didn't say anything more, and only asked them about what happened at home happily.
Although Yan Ye had told her some things before, she couldn't go out in the capital openly, so she didn't know much about the matters at home.
Now that Ye Shuo and Xu Yanhao were here, Xu Yanzhu could finally relax his homesick mood.
On the third day after Ye Shuo and his group arrived, many refugees came from the northwest of the city.
